Kyle Freeland's solid start not enough for win
by Chris Schommer | Rockies Correspondent | Sun, Sep 15th 9:57am EDT
Kyle Freeland delivered a quality start, allowing three earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out three over seven innings in Saturday's 6-5 victory over the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite a decent outing, Freeland's performance this season continues to be a mixed bag for fantasy managers. With a 4.89 ERA and a 1.38 WHIP over 19 starts, he remains a risky play, especially in leagues that heavily penalize earned runs. His low strikeout rate of 6.9 K/9 limits his upside in categories that reward strikeouts. However, his ability to eat innings and post a reasonable strikeout-to-walk ratio might offer some value in deeper leagues or as a streaming option in favorable matchups.
